Amazon Announcement Day 06/09/2012 – 18:30 BST

Just pre-ordered the Fire HD 8.9 4G version :) It comes with a 250MB/month data plan for just $50/year! :eek: I know 250MB isn't much, but it's fine with me - I'll only be doing the basics while I'm on the move....the rest of the time I'll be on WI-FI.

Git :D
 
Kindle Paperwhite is available from 25th October here. Didn't see that coming tbh. It is being launched with the lending library doodah thingy that they have in the US.

Good news indeed :)
My intention was to use my nexus 7 as a kindle but even with the brightness right down it still causes eyestrain after a while so looking forward to getting the real thing
 
Excellent news on the paperwhite, though I'm not sure I see prime and the lending library as a good deal yet, I'd rather buy a book once a month for similar cost and continue with normal shipping.
 
really annoying using my xoom with the kindle app, screen is far to reflective when outdoor and just causes you to much eye-strain.

Not sure i really need the new paperwhite but i'm think christmas pressie...
 
I'm extremely surprised that the Paperlight has came to the UK before the end of 2012. Very odd how Amazon they never bothered to mention the date beforehand. This must have been their plan all along. Bizarre.

I've pre-ordered one and coughed up the extra delivery which means it will be with me on release day; the 25th October!

Now... what colour smart case to buy??
 
Yep my black case has also been put back to 12/11!

The other colours are showing in stock, and are ready to ship. I tempted to change to another colour but to be honest I much prefer black. Think I'll wait it out.

Hopefully the same last minute delay won't happen with the Paperlight!
 
The case has arrived:
